This study examined the validity and clinical implications of the assumption of the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease Study (MDRD) formula that age, gender, race, and BUN account for creatinine production (CP). The relationships of MDRD GFR, CP, and nutrition were examined in 1074 Dialysis Morbidity and Mortality Study Wave II patients with reported measured creatinine clearances at initiat...

Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of six months of aerobic training on some renal function markers in untrained middle-aged women. Methods: Nineteen healthy female middle-aged were selected by convenience sampling method and were randomly divided into two experimental (n=11) and control (n=8) groups. The exercise protocol included aerobic exercise training lasted for...

OBJECTIVE The fluid recommendation for adults aged 70+ years has been criticised on the basis of a low prevalence of dehydration in community-dwelling older adults. This study explores whether the low prevalence might reflect limitations of individual dehydration indices. DESIGN Cross-sectional data on plasma sodium, blood urea nitrogen (BUN), creatinine, glucose and potassium were used to cl...

Iron from injured muscles can produce acute renal failure. Cytochrome P 450 is one enzyme that involved in iron-related acute renal failure. Inhibition this enzyme may decrease rhabdomyolysisinduced myoglobinuric nephrotoxicity. The aim of this study was comparison effect of cimetidine, estradiol and vitamin E on myoglobinuric renal toxicity in rats. This study was conducted in 6 groups. Normal...

BACKGROUND Nitrites are mainly used in food preservation. These materials could change to nitrosamine due to the effect of heat and gastric acid. Nitrosamine is absorbed in intestine and enters the liver and hepatocytes by portal venous system, and hampers the detoxification system of liver by interfering in cytochrome P450 enzymes, so, the liver gently proceeds to cirrhosis and cancer. OBJEC...

Hemorrhagic shock (HS) following acute alcohol intoxication can increase proinflammatory cytokine production and induce marked immunosuppression. We investigated the effects of ethanol on physiopathology and cytokine levels following HS in acutely alcohol-intoxicated rats. Rats received an intravenous injection of 5 g/kg ethanol over 3 h followed by HS induced by withdrawal of 40% of total bloo...
